I can't understand where you might have picked up a suitabably rated supply for the supplementary (auxiliary ?) socket. It needs a 20 to 30 amp supply with minimal voltage drop or loss along its length.

My towbar (for reasons I'm not quite sure) was fitted with a 15A fuse on the cable.

I fitted a Volton Combi box when I installed a bar on my last 75. It did require a direct (30a fuse IIRC) live feed from the battery. I also fitted a switched 12v socket in the boot from that feed for using a fridge when not towing.

Oh, OK - It read as if you had found all you needed in the boot.
